27. They could afford to buy the house because it was too expensive.

因为房子太贵了,所以他们买不起房子。

27. could改成couldn’t根据后半句因为房子太贵了推断出他们买不起,所以是couldn’t

例句:But it is said these foreigners could speak English.

不过我听说这些外宾都会讲英语。

结构分析:

They是主语,couldn’t afford是谓语,to buy the house是宾语,because引导原因状语从句,it是主语,指前面的the house,was too expensive是系表型谓语,其中was是系动词,过去一般时,too expensive是形容词词组作表语。
